What Types of Residential Roofing Do We Install in Lancaster?
No two homes in Lancaster are exactly alike—and your roofing system should reflect that. MK Contractors installs a wide range of residential roofing options designed to balance appearance, performance, and long-term value.
Asphalt Shingle Roofing
Asphalt shingles remain the most popular roofing choice across Central Kentucky, and for good reason. They offer reliable protection at an accessible price point while giving homeowners plenty of style options. Today’s asphalt shingles are engineered to resist wind, rain, and UV damage, making them a smart, dependable solution for Lancaster homes.
Metal Roofing
For homeowners looking for exceptional durability and low maintenance, metal roofing is hard to beat. Metal roofs stand up to high winds, hail, and temperature swings while reflecting heat to improve energy efficiency. Whether you prefer a modern standing-seam look or a more traditional metal style, this option offers decades of worry-free performance.
Cedar Roofing
Cedar shingles and shakes bring natural beauty and character to a home, especially in rural or historic settings around Garrard County. Beyond their warm appearance, cedar roofs provide natural insulation and breathability, helping regulate indoor temperatures while aging gracefully over time.
Slate Roofing
Slate roofing is a premium choice for homeowners who want unmatched longevity and timeless elegance. Known to last 75–100 years or more, slate offers superior resistance to fire, moisture, and weather extremes. It’s an excellent fit for historic properties or homes where long-term value and architectural impact matter most.

MK Contractors were exceptionally professional in every aspect of multiple houses with roofs needing replaced. Dennis was extremely helpful and accommodating throughout the process. He kept me updated with photos and messages. Everyone … More in the team of people were fast and prompt. The word done is exactly as requested and exceptionally well done. If you've been looking for a roofing contractor that calls you back, is timely, and gets good work done quickly, look no further! -

MK Contractors LLC replaced the roof on our home and I must say that dealing with them was a refreshing and pleasant experience. They returned calls promptly, showed up when promised, were professional and polite. The teamwork displayed … More by their crew was a joy to behold. They covered the many shrubs and plants around our house to protect them and they cleaned up all debris. I would highly recommend MK Contractors for any roofing, gutter, siding or other repair you might have. -

Changing roof is not a task a homeowner manages frequently; as a matter of fact some homeowners may never get such a job done. So when it comes to my roof, I need someone I can trust. I know that we had sporadical hails and strong wind … More in my area recently, as I could see discoloration and spots on the shingles by looking from the ground level. I really did not want to go through the hustle of calling a lot of roofing companies and picking one. Luckily a trusted friend recommended Junior @ MK Contractors LLC to me.
Junior came to my home to do evaluation right away after my call. The fact he got on roof so fast amazed me! He took pictures of the rood, explained the details, helped me navigate the insurance claim process, and provided me with a quote that mirrored the insurance estimate.
From there, the scheduling was done very quickly and the crew showed up right after the shingles were delivered. I have to say that it was one of the most handworking, efficient and disciplined teams I had ever seen/encountered! They got everything done within 2 days, cleaned up the job site, and picked up every possible loose nail on the driveway, walkway and the lawn. It looked like nothing had happened – except the roof was brand new!
All in all, I would strongly recommend MK Contractors LLC to anyone who is thinking of getting the roof replaced. -

Just wanted to compliment Junior, with MK Construction, for being so courteous and personable. He actually repaired my leaky front gutter "free of charge" when I had only requested a quote for the job. Two thumbs up!
